Olmert's Gaza Incursion Plan is Folly
The planned incursion into Gaza is not to achieve victory, but to bring in a multi-national force after a cease-fire. And we all know how incredibly effective those multi-national troops have been in the past. Just look at what a great job the UNIFIL troops are doing on the Lebanese border where Hizbullah have rebuilt their bunkers and their rocket capacity to an even greater strength than ever before. And let's not forget the magnificent job the multi-national troops did in Rwanda when they stood by and watched, yes, watched, as close to a million souls were butchered.
But sure, by all means, bring in multi-nationals because as we all know they are just straining at the leash to help out the Jews.
What could possibly go wrong?
Olmert and Livni must go.
This government is a national disgrace, a danger to the existence of the State of Israel and to the future of the Jewish people.
Israel is considering a large-scale incursion into the Gaza Strip during which it would present an ultimatum to the international community for the deployment of a multinational force as the only condition under which it would withdraw, defense officials have told The Jerusalem Post.

Hat Tip: Seraphic Chaver, Kishke

Seraphic Secret is private property, that's right, it's an extension of our home, and as such, Karen and I have instituted two Seraphic Rules and we ask commentors to act respectfully.
1. No profanity.2. No Israel bashing. We debate, we discuss, we are respectful. You know what Israel bashing is. The world is full of it. Seraphic Secret is one of the few places in the world that will not tolerate this form of anti-Semitism. That's it. Break either of these rules and you will be banned.
It's just incredible, delusional stupidity. In most earlier Arab-Israeli wars, the goal was always to accomplish as much as possible before the world powers - always ready to save the Arabs - stepped in. Now the goal has become to get them to step in.

Kishke:
Idea #1: Can we trade Olmert and Livni for the the IDF soldiers who are held captive? I can't think of anything else these two are good for, can you?
Idea #2: Coup d'etat. Since the Israeli electorate seem unable to get rid of this miserable, traitorous government on their own.

I sometimes wonder if Olmert makes decisions by consulting the Magic 8-Ball.

I'm sure that 9 out of 10 Jews would agree that Olmert's Getting Out of Bed is Just Plain Folly.
We should start a new campaign. Olmert Stay in Bed Where You Can't Do Any Damage.

A Magic 8 ball is far too coherent a methodology for Olmert.

Olmert can still make decisions from his bed. Livni will still agitate for her beloved French troops.
I have a better idea: let's throw the scoundrels out of office. Ehud, Aliza and Tzipi can retire to Paris, go shopping with Suha Arafat.
